Victor and his team did a terrible job working on our house. We contracted them to remove all of…read morethe paneling and replace it with drywall, as well as remove and replace all of the doors in 4 rooms of our house. Not only do the doors not work, meaning that they don't close all the way - if at all, but they didn't remove all of the paneling from the rooms we contracted them to remove it from either. In addition, they also painted some rough drywall around one of the doors as though it was door trim, in the hopes that we wouldn't notice the fact that they didn't even bother to complete putting the trim on the door. Now that we've started working on having the poor work done by Home Verse completed by someone else, we've also found numerous instances where the paneling wasn't removed either. I've attached photos of the paneling we've found in various rooms, as well as some of the drywall issues we've encountered, and a photo of the painted drywall next to the door frame that they didn't install the trim on. Stay away from this company, and hire a different contractor. When contacted about the issues listed, and sent the following photos of what we found, no refunds or compensation of any kind were offered.

I cannot speak more highly of Mr. Eric Zhang and his team for a bathroom renovation. I would rank…read morethem more than 5 Stars if I could. Quite simply, they are the best. They gut renovated both of our bathrooms, which was no easy task considering the overall age of our house, size of our bathroom, and required customization. They are incredibly hard working and always checked with us about our needs during the construction period. We feel very fortunate that we hired them. The quality of work in our bathrooms is top notch. Their ability to proceed with care, efficiency, problem-solve, communicate, and their attention to detail is outstanding. We feel like we had so many tall requests for this project and they delivered on all of them.

The cost was reasonable, and we really like the fact that Eric, the "boss," was always there in person. They did a professional job, and we'd recommend them to anyone!

Roberto is our go-to for home maintenance and construction projects both big and small. He has…read moredone various jobs for us, including replacing faucets, installing lighting fixtures, fixing our furnace, electrical and furnace repairs, and installing a vent for our stove. Most significantly, he finished our attic space to turn it into a play area for our children. The results were beautiful, and I really appreciated his attention to detail - for example, he pointed out that putting nice molding above the door to the space would make the area look much more finished and in the character of the rest of our (older) home. Roberto is always cheerful - he's a pleasure to have around (during the attic project, he was hanging out with us every day, and my toddlers were ready to adopt him into the family!). He responds to texts promptly, communicates well throughout the project, and hires quality subcontractors when necessary. We're going to try a bathroom with him next, because I've seen photos of what he's doing around town, and they look great!

I called into Paraiso General Construction today to potentially schedule contractor services for one of the units that we help manage. As soon as I called in and mentioned where I was calling from, I was promptly told not interested and was hung up on. Unfortunately, this makes me believe that we were rejected due to the clients that we serve. In seeing the previous reviews of the company, I'm sure that they offer great work and I hope it was just a miscommunication. However, it's really disappointing to be rejected for an initial conversation and not given the opportunity to even explain the nature of my call.

I am absolutely thrilled with the exceptional service provided by Marcus and Leal Restoration. From…read morethe initial inquiry on their website to the completion of the project, their team demonstrated unparalleled professionalism, efficiency, and communication. Their prompt response to my inquiry was impressive, and they consistently kept me updated throughout the entire process. Their dedication to ensuring I was informed every step of the way was truly appreciated. The quality of work performed by Marcus and his team was outstanding. They effectively remediated the water damage, restoring the property to its original condition. What's more, they took care of every detail, allowing us to focus on other pressing matters without worrying about the cleanup process. What truly sets this company apart, however, is their willingness to go above and beyond. They worked tirelessly to accommodate our challenging situation with difficult tenants, and their persistence in collaborating with my insurance company was instrumental in securing approval for the claim. I highly recommend Marcus and Leal Restoration to anyone facing water damage or remediation needs. Their expertise, work ethic, and commitment to customer satisfaction are unmatched! I wrote this review on google and yelp, but I had found Marcus originally on yelp so I want others to see how much I would recommend him and his work.

The project took about a week to complete, which was faster than initially expected, and the quality of the work was exceptional. I've been an architect for 30 years so I've inspected a lot of construction work and I can honestly say that the retaining wall exceeded my expectations in every way. I expected to get a replica of the original wall but got something far better in both appearance and quality. The team of masons were courteous and finished the project without skipping any days. They also cleaned up every day and left my yard cleaner than they found it when the project was finished. All of my immediate neighbors have complimented me on the wall and I expect to get many more when boating season on the lake begins next May. I solicited multiple bids for the wall project and selected AJ Masonry because they were the most informative and responsive to changes related to the Lynn Conservation Commission and Building Department. They were not the lowest bidder, nor the highest, but they were worth every penny. I can highly recommend them without hesitation.

Initial calls for gut kitchen and adjacent bathroom renovation + removal of load bearing wall went…read morewell with Sabrina and Ray - they assured us they have done many similar projects in the area successfully and on time. From the many positive and detailed yelp/google/houzz/angi reviews that had great end result pictures, we were convinced to move forward. Sabrina turned around the estimate for labor and some materials allowance quickly along with separate helpful tiered pricing guidance PDFs for kitchen and bathroom finishes to be purchased separately. Tile guidance was a bit off and a few categories like vanity, counter, mirror, light fixture in bathroom and plumbing for kitchen were missing. Vendors showed us finishes across all price tiers so it took us an extra week to finalize selections. Unfortunately we were told this delayed the project by a month. We were asked to wait on the kitchen design until after the engineering work for removal of the load bearing wall and addition of shear walls. Since we had a choice on the location of the shear walls, we preferred to do the design in tandem. I used cabinets.com to create my own rendering of the kitchen layout we wanted and provided them the full dimensions. The day before the approved structural wall work was to begin they sent their own drawing which had the wrong wall locations. After talking to both David and Dayna we realized her and the designer were not brought up to speed on the engineering work. Dayna then setup a productive Zoom call with the designer directly and we got my drawing to be updated with a few suggestions and required spacing and panels. The biggest mistake in the project came from one of their subcontractors employees who removed the plastic cover over our basement sink and cleaned off tools and plaster in it clogging the drain. Bay State quickly sent the drywall guy back over to unclog it. The project took just under 4 months to complete. Bay State and their subcontractors apart from the sink issue did not cut corners, often went above and beyond, and completed top quality finishes. No up-charge on materials was another big positive. The actual work done by the plumber (Mr Fix-It), electrician (Marcus Quintino), tile guys, drywall guy, cabinets guys, floor guys, and painters (AJA Painting) was excellent and we are very happy with our new space. Marcio was the MVP of their team - always calm, listened attentively to our many questions, provided great suggestions, and constantly asked the subcontractors to clean up. If they forgot, he cleaned up himself. His wife also worked tirelessly all day cleaning up at the end of the project. Things constantly move around and change during construction and it was difficult to get a clear picture of the plan each day. Andreina and at the start Dayna heard from us every week and always answered the phone and tried their best to chase down answers from others and get us the latest information. The billing process is very straightforward and Andreina provided further detail on line items as needed. Jose was always positive and happy to pass along feedback from us to the office when he swung by. Sabrina provided helpful guidance at the start in choosing our cabinets, counters, and hardware. David continually helped move the project along and has ensured everything is to our liking while encouraging us to pass along any punch list items. I would recommend Bay State for their quality of work, integrity, and communication. My main constructive feedback is on the design process and keeping everyone in sync throughout the project on the latest information.

UPDATE: I reached out to Cleibster, and Dynamic Home Renovations and he sent someone out to assess…read morethe problem and make the repair. ALL DONE SAME DAY -- assessing the issue, removing the faulty tile, cutting and installing a replacement, and regrouting. Dynamic Home Renovations has its own employees, rather than relying solely on subcontractors, so when an issue comes up, they can actually send someone out without a major hassle -- even long after the project is finished. That kind of follow-through and customer service is HUGE. This wasn't something I considered asking contractors about before hiring them, but I definitely will going forward. Dynamic was the Subcontractor hired by my GC, I never had a contract with him, but he still honored his guarantee. I also reached out to the original GC. He scheduled a day to come over and although he said he was going to fix it that day, all he did was "assess the problem" -- I'm still waiting to hear back from the GC. THANK YOU CLEIBSTER, and thank you Luis! I will add the updated photos once my grout dries, but wanted to update my review ASAP since I was pretty UPSET about having a tile I needed to figure out how to replace. GENERAL ADVICE: If you have tile installed, always save at least a partial box of the leftover tile! Our tile was discontinued by Floor & Decor. So happy I had enough for the fix.
